It will be another female, probably center-left on politics but leans right on guns. There'll be a compromise involved in order to maybe get a few democratic senators on board. It'd be a shorter process than with Kavanaugh if it's a female nominee, by the way. Because there is no risk of the #MeToo movement blind-siding his decision.
Trump nominates Amy Barrett.

Looking forward to reading this NY Times article when I get a few minutes. Finally insight into the reason those tax returns were never obtained.

It shows he is not the businessman he portrays himself to be. Must be nice to only pay $750 in years you actually pay taxes. Our system is so fucked up.

Don't hate the playa, hate the game. When the tax code is more complicated than brain surgery you can’t blame people for being smart enough to exploit the loopholes.

What the media does is called drive by headlining. Basically produce as many hit pieces as possible, and quickly move on to the next before people actually pick apart the narrative. They're doing this in rapid succession to avoid talking about mass voter fraud in Minnesota. Hopefully Trump calls the media out on that tonight while Biden is sniffing his armpits.

Many Many reasons Fat Hitler won't release his taxes... One being he is completely corrupt and can be bought. With this kind of debt not just the 400 mil due in the next 4 years but the fact he is 1.1 Billion in debt ( Forbes ) This kind of debt would be the number one reason to deny Security Clearance
He was broke when Apprentice started as well. He is broke as a joke.One million from Erdagon... yeah that Erdagon :roll: It's pathetic to see people who pay more in taxes than a self claimed billionaire defend him..... this tells me two things They are avid Fox entertainment junk viewers by the way Fox just won a law suit by stating Tucker is a liar and the viewers know this and so they can't claim or expect him to be honest and They want Guaranteed in a 2nd Trump term:

- MORE racism
- MORE misogyny
- MORE attacks on women's rights
- MORE attacks on LGBTQ rights
- MORE bullying
- MORE hate crimes
- MORE tax breaks for the rich
- MORE corruption
- MORE pollution
- MORE misery
- MORE poverty
- MORE coronavirus
and More Fascism ... they are all willing to give up every right they have to defend a PIG rather than admit they ARE WRONG but then again maybe they are all these things and proud to have Fat Hitler represent their beliefs which seems to be the case because every argument is BUT OBAMA BUT HILLARY BUT BUT they can not defend this Pig so they do as he does Self Project Spin Gaslight and flat out lie

Republican Inquiry Finds No Evidence of Wrongdoing by Biden
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/23/us/p ... hnson.html



also https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles ... -quicktake
The notion that Hunter Biden and his father could be complicit in Ukrainian corruption was first aired in a 2018 book, “Secret Empires: How the American Political Class Hides Corruption and Enriches Family and Friends.” Its author, Peter Schweizer, is an editor at Breitbart News and president of the Government Accountability Institute, a nonprofit group founded by former Trump political adviser Steve Bannon. The group’s board chairwoman is Rebekah Mercer, a prominent Trump supporter. Trump has cited Schweizer by name in some of his Twitter attacks on the Bidens. But even Schweizer’s book doesn’t allege that any laws were broken.

Burisma issued a statement in 2017 saying that “all legal proceedings and pending criminal allegations” against it and Zlochevsky were closed and that it paid an extra 180 million hryvnias ($7 million) in taxes. There’s also no known evidence that any of the investigations ever involved Hunter Biden. Ukraine’s former prosecutor general, Yuriy Lutsenko, told Bloomberg News in May that there was no evidence of wrongdoing by the Bidens.

Without substantiation, Trump has said and tweeted that the Biden family “was paid off, pure and simple” and accused the family of corruption, extortion and “pillaging” foreign countries. He’s called them “stone-cold crooked” and publicly urged Ukraine and China to open criminal investigations of them. (Trump’s contention that Hunter Biden flew to Beijing aboard the vice president’s aircraft and left a billionaire -- the episode he wants China to investigate -- isn’t supported by the available facts, either. Still, Hunter Biden said he’s resigning from the board of a Chinese-backed private equity company and would forgo all foreign work if his father is elected president.)

That was disgraceful. Every American citizen is a loser for being part of this country during that embarrassment.

One of the things that did piss me off about tonight. Trump said this-

"Proud Boys — Stand back, stand by, but I’ll tell you what, somebody’s got to do something about Antifa and the left because this is not right-wing problem..... This is a left wing problem."

Seriously....what. the. Fuck.

Biden did have a great improv moment when Trump mocked his son’s drug addiction and Joe showed some empathy and humanity that will probably connect with viewers.

Joe was a little more disoriented and blinky than even I expected. The interrupting from Trump was well deserved, especially when he confronted Wallace. Part of me wanted Trump to put a lot of pressure on Biden, the other part of me wanted him to let him speak and show his Alzheimer's. Trump did well enough. Great zingers. Biden gon' Biden.

Trump: 1
Biden: Hairy legs

Definitely think Biden came across as the more sympathetic and honest.
